TurboVap 500

In environmental laboratories, concentration of large samples is often a time consuming process. TurboVap 500 efficiently concentrates organic solvent extracts to 0.5 or 1.0 mL and sounds an alarm when finished. This “load and leave” capability frees the analyst for more important work. TurboVap 500 is also an excellent alternative to traditional rotary evaporators used in organic synthesis. With a 500 mL solvent capacity and water bath temperatures up to 95 °C, synthesis mixtures are processed quickly. The unique vortexing action maintains the components of interest in the solvent during evaporations and minimizes the “plating” of the compounds on the vessel walls. The open top cylindrical design of the sample tube, with a small stem at the bottom, provides an easy way to recover the products of interest when the evaporation is completed.

Main advantages of the TurboVap 500

• Patented vortex shearing technology

• Patented sensor endpoint detection

• Operators are freed to perform other tasks

• No “bumping” means no re-working of samples

• Solvent vapor recovery system – laboratory emissions can be greatly reduced

• User-friendly displays and diagnostics

• Convenient bench top size – no hood space required

• No need for fume hood

• Portable – no gas required applications
